1.Consider a 1200 kg car and solve the questions below (worth 30 marks).
a)Findthecostoftransportation(per kilometre)inunitsofMJ/kmifthis cardrives1kilometer at an average speed of15m/s (54 kph).Draw a simple carshowing the cross section and 3 arrows to identify the direction of the movement and forces. Assume:h= 21% engine;stops and starts 5 times per km (city driving);Crr=0.025crosssection is 3.5mby 2.55m;Cd=0.32; air density 1.29kg/m3.
b)Convert this cost of transportation from MJ/km intofuel expense unitsof litres of gasoline per 100 km, note, it needs to be per 100 km not 1 km.
